A Comparing and Ordering Integers Worksheet Set for Easy Practise

Teach Starter has created this comparing and ordering integers worksheet set for you to use with your students when exploring integers. This two-worksheet set has straightforward directions and is very easy to use, but don’t worry—it will still get students thinking!  

Skills used in these worksheets include:

• Comparing integers using <, >, or =
• Ordering three integers from greatest to least
• Ordering three integers from least to greatest

In addition to independent student work time, this comparing and ordering integers worksheet set works well in guided maths groups, as a lesson wrap-up or homework assignment, or as an additional activity for fast finishers. 

For students who may need more support, consider providing a number line that includes positive and negative numbers. It may help students to plot each number before comparing.
